The global death toll from the coronavirus has now topped 2,000, but that’s little compared to the flu. In the U.S. alone this season the CDC estimates at least 14,000 flu-related deaths. Still, the fear of coronavirus may be spreading faster than the virus itself. Quarantines, lockdowns and daily death toll updates have heightened the fear of the respiratory illness.Much of it stems from the unknown. The exact mortality rate is still a big question says Dr. Emily Landon, an epidemiologist and infectious disease specialist at the University of Chicago Hospital. “If you just have a cold you just stay home, and you never get tested. And so those people don't appear in the totals which make it look like it might be more deadly than it is” she says. Dr. Landon says the virus is causing alarm for several reasons: Everyone is susceptible, there is no vaccine yet and it’s unclear whether antiviral medicines will be effective. “More people that get this new coronavirus, it looks like more of them will die than the same number of people who get the influenza virus,” says Landon. Social media misinformation, like a global air travel map that went viral – incorrectly predicting the spread of the outbreak, have not helped. “Fear has driven the Chinese response to the crisis,” says Phillip Braun, a clinical professor of finance and Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management.That fear-factor he says is costing global financial markets“For China it is going to be billions for the U.S. it's unclear yet,” explains Braun.Suspended flights, supply chain disruptions and factory and store closures are already hurting major U.S. companies like Wal-Mart, Starbucks and Apple. “Apple's already announced their earnings are going to be reduced because their factories in China are shut down so they're not going to have enough supply of Apple iPhones here in the states,” says Braun.Still, public health officials like Dr. Landon are quick to point out that they are being vigilant about identifying cases, quarantining and in turn isolating the virus so it can’t reproduce.“The only thing that's really going to protect you is if you clean your hands before you touch your face. Period,” she says.Economists and healthcare experts agree that while there is cause for concern so far, there is not yet reason to panic. 2346

The feel-good story of how Cambodia allowed a cruise ship to dock after it was turned away elsewhere in Asia for fear of spreading a new disease took an unfortunate turn after a passenger later tested positive for the virus.News over the weekend that an 83-year-old American woman who was on the ship and flew from Cambodia to Malaysia was found to be carrying the virus froze further movement of the passengers and crew of the Westerdam. Some are in hotels in Cambodia’s capital, Phnom Penh, while others are still aboard the ship.The American woman was among several hundred passengers who were flown out of Cambodia on Friday and Saturday. According to authorities in Malaysia, 143 continued their flights home from that country, while the woman and her 84-year-old husband, who was diagnosed with pneumonia, remained behind for treatment.The dispersal around the world of passengers from the ship with possible exposure to the new coronavirus has sparked concern.“I think now given that there is a confirmed case that is suspected to have acquired infection on board the ship, the other passengers should be asked to quarantine themselves at home and alert health authorities if they develop fever or respiratory symptoms within the 14 days since disembarkation,” said Professor Benjamin Cowling from the School of Public Health at Hong Kong University.Dr. Gagandeep Kang, executive director of India’s Translational Health Science and Technology Institute, said it is unclear whether the woman’s infection would result in an outbreak in another part of the world. The virus that causes the disease named COVID-19 has been confirmed in about two dozen countries, with most cases concentrated in China, where it emerged in December. “We will have to wait and see,” she said, adding that it would depend on where the woman got the infection, and at what stage of the infection she was in while in contact with other people.The ship’s operator, Holland America Line, said in a statement Monday that Cambodian health officials were on the ship testing the 255 guests and 747 crew who were awaiting clearance, and that guests currently staying at a Phnom Penh hotel had all been tested.“At this time, no other guests or crew on board or at the hotel have reported any symptoms of the illness. Guests who have already returned home will be contacted by their local health department and provided further information,” it said.The statement added that the virus patient had not reported any illness to the Westerdam’s medical center during the cruise. Twenty people who reported illness while on board have tested negative for the virus, it said. The rest of the passengers and crew had health checks that included filling out a written health questionnaire and having their temperatures checked, which has become standard procedure for air and sea passengers considered at risk.Several Westerdam passengers from the United States and elsewhere have already returned home and spoken to the media.Two of the passengers, Joseph Schaeffer and his wife, Paulette, a retired nurse, told the Las Vegas Review-Journal from their home in Henderson, Nevada, that they felt the hue and cry over the released passengers was not totally merited.“It doesn’t seem to me that the whole world should be jumping at this,” Joseph Schaeffer said. “There are more deaths from the flu than there have been from this particular virus,” his wife said.The couple said they were screened on their way home at airports in Phnom Penh and Singapore by thermal scanners that remotely monitor arriving passengers.On arrival in Los Angeles, they said, they were among a large crowd getting screened that included fellow cruise passengers. They said they answered questions gfrom the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that included whether they felt sick, had visited mainland China or knew anyone who had contracted the virus.Two Canadians who returned via Vancouver International Airport were asked to put on protective face masks on arrival but were not otherwise isolated, Canada’s CBC News reported.“We were asked a few questions and filled out an immigration form, and they very nicely helped us bypass the usual lineups and let us out the door,” said Joseph Hansen, who took the cruise with his wife. “We’re feeling fine.”Hansen, from Surrey, British Columbia, told CBC that he did not hear about the American woman in Malaysia with the virus until he landed in Vancouver on Sunday.“I guess on the one hand it’s upsetting to know that there was one case, but we’re feeling fine,” he said. “We’ve had health scans, temperature scans and we don’t have any concerns for our own health.”Cambodia’s government had originally earned kudos from the head of the U.N.’s World Health Organization and the U.S. ambassador there for allowing the ship to dock at Sihanoukville after it was turned away by Japan, Taiwan, the Philippines, Guam and Thailand.The move was seen as a victory for the image of Cambodia’s authoritarian leader, who welcomed the ship’s passengers with handshakes and flowers. Prime Minister Hun Sen boasted that although Cambodia is a poor country, it “has always joined the international community to solve the problems that the world and our region are facing.” WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus had said he was pleased Cambodia had agreed to accept the Westerdam and described it as an example of the international solidarity advocated by the U.N. health agency.“The one thing I can say is we’re very, very grateful that Cambodia has opened literally its ports and its doors to people in need,” U.S. Ambassador to Cambodia W. Patrick Murphy said Saturday when he took his family to the port to meet passengers. “We think this sends a strong message. We all have to help each other.”In hindsight, however, Cambodia’s handling of the ship’s passengers has been criticized on social media, though it also has gotten some support.According to Cowling, the Hong Kong University professor, it’s a good idea to let passengers leave and monitor them after disembarkation.Since there were no known cases on board the Westerdam at the time passengers left the ship, it was reasonable to allow them to travel home, he said.“I think it would not be appropriate to keep passengers on the ship for 14 days, as it could be a high-risk environment,” Cowling said. “We have seen the consequences of holding passengers on a cruise ship with the Diamond Princess outbreak,” he said, referring to another cruise ship that is quarantined in Yokohama, Japan, with hundreds of cases among the passengers.___Ng reported from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and Peck reported from Bangkok.

Terrorism is an age-old concept.Some people think the first attack happened in the first century against Roman collaborators.But modern terrorism is thought to come out of mid-19th century France, when good-quality, affordable explosives hit the market and radical political movements became more prominent.It came to the U.S. during the same time frame.Today, the terrorism landscape is much different, and so is the response.The FBI says its No. 1 priority is protecting the U.S. from terrorist attacks, regardless of motivation.Terrorism investigations fall into two categories at the FBI: international terrorism and domestic terrorism.The first is when an attack is inspired by or associated with foreign organizations or nations.If the attack or attacks are meant to further a domestic influence’s goals, it’s domestic terror.The FBI’s examples of domestic terror motivations include politics, religion, race and social issues.Domestic terror “remains persistent” overall, according to the FBI.The FBI says people cross the line from exercising First Amendment freedoms to committing crimes in hopes of furthering violent agendas.Terrorism has evolved immensely since 9/11.The FBI says lone offenders and the internet have accelerated that evolution.According to the FBI, lone offenders are tougher to identify and stop because they aren’t always clearly tied to a group.And the internet — social media, in particular — helps terrorists connect with potential recruits more easily.To meet the evolving threat, law enforcement is constantly changing its approach. 1580

The CEO of Juul is out, as a growing number of vaping-related deaths and threats of federal regulation present a monumental challenge for the e-cigarette company.Juul announced Wednesday that CEO Kevin Burns will be replaced by K.C. Crosthwaite, who had been chief growth officer at tobacco company Altria, a major investor in Juul. In that position, Crosthwaite oversaw an expansion into alternatives to traditional cigarettes. He also played a key role with commercial and regulatory efforts related to the US launch of iQOS, a device that heats tobacco rather than burning it. 591
